(Breasts) Tips on taking care of your bras

There is no feeling like finding the right kind of
support for your breasts. Getting the lingerie
that makes you feel comfortable and held
together in all the right places can be such a
herculean task that when you finally get it, you
wouldn’t want to stop wearing it and that is
just bad because it reduces the lifespan of the
bra. So, how exactly do you get to use your bra
optimally?
Don’t repeat bras consecutively
Even if it is your favorite bra, don’t wear it two
days in a row. Give it time to rest as not doing
so stretches it. If you like it so much, get
another just like it. Remember that once it
stretches, it defeats the purpose of the bra and
loses its support function.
Read the labels
Doing this in Nigeria seems to be a taboo. The
manufacturers knew what they were doing
when they attached a label. There is nothing
wrong with reading it to get the best idea of
how to take care of that particular type of bra.
Don’t over-wash your bra
Dear Clean Freak, washing your bra after every
wear weakens its elastic quality. Wear at least
three or four times before washing except if
you had a particularly sweaty day then you can
decide to wash it a bit sooner.
No need to bleach it
Even if it is white and you want to retain that
brightness, you don’t have to go to the lengths
of bleaching it. The active ingredients in bleach
are much too harsh on your poor bra. Besides,
it is not as if you wore the bra and decided to
roll in mud so how dirty could it be that you
need bleach?
Hand wash
It’s just a bra; hand-washing shouldn’t be so
difficult. It helps you go gentle on it and apply
pressure only where necessary.
